Managing cinema industry for holding world
peace
The Lumier brothers
might not be aware that their invention will change into one
of the greatest achievements of twentieth century after
years and have a special influence on recording and
reflecting the occurrences in its surrounding world.
But so unfortunately
one of the most famous happenings in the twentieth century
is the chain of continuous wars which has made the face of
modern world dark and black, peaceless and violent, so that
Hanna Arent believes that the war has covered the face of
twentieth century.
Cinema as the 7th
art and the most influential media of modern world can
change into the best and most efficient tribune of human
society for coming to the world free from war and
accompanied by peace and democracy.
If justice, truth and
liberty are basic stresses and values of all human
societies, we have to accept that the only road and proper
context for achieving the values is holding peace and
democracy in both nationwide and international areas.
The author tries in
the article below to explain the relation between cinema and
the world peace and answer the basic questions in this
context. Questions such as:
-
Is the cinema stepping in the road of peace
and towards democracy?
-
And how can we use the cinema for expanding
and developing peace in the world?
At this time, in the
beginning years of 21st
century, we have to admit this point that by passing a
century from the birth of cinema, this art-industry is still
attractive for people colonies . Even with the existence of
a very strong competitor like TV, in the middle of 20th
century, cinema can keep its unique position that is due to
tracing its own main mission which is detecting and showing
the truth up, but unfortunately in the past years this has
been ignored.
